 Repeated race names
Hi all I have been updating the UK schedule for 2015/16 and I have noticed - in the real racing calendar - that many races are named the same e.g. Betfred Racing's Biggest Supporter, 32red.com Handicap, British Stallion Studs etc. I have noticed that if a race name is repeated elsewhere in the game's schedule, the conditions for the first instance of the race are copied across to the second instance e.g. 5,M,2 6500 Kempton:cc_dirt2 British Stallion Studs EBF April
8,COND:notwongroup=1,3 10000 Beverley:cc_flatTurf1 British Stallion Studs EBF May
Beverley's race conditions get overwritten by lines 1 and 2 of Kempton's race conditions.
You may already be doing this but, if you have 10 instances of these throughout the year, it can become unworkable trying to rename them slightly differently. I have given myself over to, first standardising the name, and then numbering them.
5,M,2 6500 Kempton:cc_dirt2 British Stallion Studs EBF1 April
8,COND:notwongroup=1,3 10000 Beverley:cc_flatTurf1 British Stallion Studs EBF2 May
It's untidy but it works. Beverley's running will still be a 1m conditions race for 3-y-os.
